CITY ATTORNEY: There were no agenda items.

CITY ADMINISTRATOR: Interim City Administrator Tony Graff commented that he emailed his report to the Council on Friday and he has no agenda items but would entertain any questions. There were no questions.

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT: Interim Public Works Director Mike Eulitz requested to Approve an Ordinance Supplementing the Budget Officer Ordinance for the Fiscal Year Beginning May 1, 2024 and Ending April 30, 2025 for the City of Crest Hill, Will County, Illinois per the memo dated May 20, 2024. This would be a request to amend the 2024- 2025 Budget to handle the repairs that the iron filter of Wells #9 and #12 need for an amount not to exceed $386,386.00. This would come from the Fund balance and be transferred to the Water and Sewer Capital Fund for well maintenance budgets.

Attorney Mike Stiff recommended that the word Officer should be taken out of the heading since we are not amending the Budget Officer Ordinance but are amending the Budget Ordinance.

Alderwoman Gazal asked how this will impact next year's budget. City Treasurer Glen Conklin commented that it would increase by $386,386.00. She then asked if that would mean they would have to do less projects in the upcoming budget year. Treasurer Conklin commented that since we added to it and are providing funds from reserves, they would not have to do less projects.

Alderman Cipiti asked if the type of damage we are seeing is something that would be expected or is it something that could have been prevented. Interim Director Eulitz commented that these vessels in these wells have a fifteen to twenty-year life span and this particular vessel has passed that twenty-year life span. He also commented that there is nothing we can do because of the nature of the chemicals we are putting in there. Alderman Cipiti asked if this would be the reason of the rusty water that has been reported more recently. Interim Director Eulitz commented that the rusty water was from the work being done at the Gaylord Water Tank. That tank was emptied to clean it out and when water was put back in the tank it stirred up the water remains that were in there which created that issue. He also commented that the fire hydrants need flushed which contribute to this as well and that has not been done for a couple of years.

Alderwoman Gazal commented that this is something that needs done soon and she had mentioned this when Interim Director Eulitz had first started. She also commented that the amount of text messages, phone calls, private messages, and emails are above and beyond regarding this issue and when we tell the resident to run your water for fifteen minutes and flush your toilets, their response is, well who is going to pay my water bill. We keep asking them to run the water and it is expensive.

Interim Director Eulitz commented that he wanted to do the flushing of the fire hydrants back in April, but the Well issues came up and if we start flushing the hydrants, we are going to have problems with pressure throughout the city. He also commented that once the repairs are done to the wells and they are back in service we could flush the hydrants but there will be pressure issues because of the usage of water in the summertime. He stated that best time to flush the hydrants would be in the fall.

Alderman Cipiti asked if the hydrants can be flushed during the night when there would not be much water usage and would not be noticed by the residents. Interim Director Eulitz commented that it could be done but it is not very safe to do that during the night for the workers, but we could investigate it as a possible alternative.

Interim Public Works Director Mike Eulitz requested to Approve the Emergency Purchase of two (2) Raw Sewage Pumps for the West Treatment Plant in the Amount of $42,381.48 per the memo dated May 20, 2024. Interim Director Eulitz commented that there are four (4) pumps and two (2) of them are not working. There is a possibility they were hit by lightning and could maybe get reimbursed for this, but we will not know until we take the pumps out and review them.

Resolution #1234

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT: Interim Director of Community Development Ron Mentzer requested to Approve an Ordinance Granting a Special Use Permit with Respect to Certain Real Property Located within the Corporate Boundaries of Crest Hill (Application of Gas N Wash/RR Crest Hill, LLC) per the memo dated May 20, 2024.

On May 9, 2024 the Plan Commission had a unanimous recommendation of approval subject to several conditions. This will allow a new special use permit to allow a PUD in a B-3 zoning district that would allow the existing temporary driving improvements on the northwest corner of Weber Road and Division Street to be converted into semi-permanent improvements for an interim basis. This would be in place until the rest of the Heidner Properties are developed.

Alderman Cipiti asked the City Engineer how he feels about this. Engineer Wiedeman commented that this location is more acceptable than the previous and it will allow the same amount of storage for left moving trucks which was one of our issues and this will maintain the storage we have.

Alderman Jefferson commented that this is a temporary entrance and where will it be moved to once they finish developing. Interim Director Mentzer commented that it will more than likely end up in the same location, but the configuration of the driveway entrance would have to be modified to provide appropriate access since this driveway will service more than just Gas N Wash once they are all developed.

Alderman Albert commented that he agrees with the full access interchange that is farther west and safer for all but where are we at with the actual right turn from Weber Road onto Division Street. Engineer Wiedeman commented that it is still permitted by Will County and will be built.

Alex Kugar, a representative from Gas N Wash approached the podium and commented that they are waiting on the final approval from Kinder Morgan and when they receive the final approval they will proceed.

Alderwoman Gazal asked for the estimated completion of this project. Engineer Wiedeman commented that they still must submit plans for all the items that have not been addressed yet and that will have to get engineer approval and should be this year.

Mayor Soliman asked if anyone would like to speak for or against Gas N Wash for a special use for Planned Unit Development and Major PUD Change for the northwest corner of Weber Road and Division Street, Crest Hill, Illinois to include the 0.84 Acres immediately adjacent to the west. The additional property to be utilized for permanent driveway improvements for the existing Gas N Wash project.

Stuart Soifer, a resident, asked if there will be any traffic control at that intersection. Engineer Wiedeman commented that they will not have traffic controls on Division Street, just a stop signs for the access road. Stuart commented that he feels with the amount of trucks on Division this would be dangerous. Stuart also asked how that will affect the sales of the remainder of the property and turn away potential developers away from that property.

Troy Paionk, representative from Heidner Properties, approached the podium and commented that there will be no negative impact for the remainder of the property. He also commented that this access point fits in with the site planning efforts that has already taken place and they will still have to come back to the city for the remainder of the property being developed.

Alderman Albert commented that the original plan on page 141 shows that right turn lane and the new plan does not, whether the width is there or not, it is not shown on the plan and he is fearful that the lane will not be put in and right now the traffic is too congested and there needs to be an eastbound lane onto Division Street.

Troy commented that there are numerous documents of record at the city showing that a southbound right turn lane is incorporated into the original Gas N Wash design. He also commented that what we are here tonight for is talking about the new access point and leaving the original as designed Gas N Wash exactly how it is being approved by Will County and the City of Crest Hill and the documents are on record. He also stated the reason they are not shown on this site plan is that the purpose of this site plan is to show the new location of the access and not focus on the intersection of Weber Road and Division Street.

Engineer Wiedeman commented that the site plan does show the widening.

(#13) Motion by Alderman Jefferson seconded by Alderwoman Gazal, to Approve an Ordinance Granting a Special Use Permit with Respect to Certain Real Property Located within the Corporate Boundaries of Crest Hill (Application of Gas N Wash/RR Crest Hill, LLC) per the memo dated May 20, 2024.

Alderwoman Gazal asked if he received any resumes for Alderman Vershay's seat and what is the next process. Mayor Soliman commented that he did receive resumes and he has sixty (60) days to bring a recommendation for Alderman Vershay's Council seat. Alderwoman Gazal asked if the Council will see these resumes. Mayor Soliman commented that it is the mayor's choice on appointment. Attorney Stiff commented that it is the Mayor's appointment within sixty (60) days. Alderwoman Gazal asked can the Council know who applied or is it a secret. Attorney Stiff commented that is not a legal question but he thinks the Mayor can share it if he so desires but there is nothing in the statute stating he has to share resumes and it doesn't even say he has to take resumes, it just states that he appoints. Alderwoman Gazal commented that it also doesn't state that he cannot share them.
